Blacklick Creek Trail

Rating The Ride

Smoothness

6 / 10 Rough in spots and there was even a 20-yard patch of gravel trail (in Turnberry Community Park) where the asphalt had been removed and not replaced. NOTE: Smoothness changes with time and trails could worsen or be repaved

Scenery

5 / 10 Some nice shaded portions. Travels through a few parks with views of the creek. The trail uses the sidewalks on Hines Rd and Tussing Rd. Noisy due to high-traffic roads near the trail.

Seclusion

5 / 10 Quite crowded. We had planned to bike through Blacklick Woods Metro Park to Livingstone Ave, but we turned around early due to pedestrian traffic in the park. About 5 or 6 road crossings.

Final score 5.3 / 10
